Fun fact
In 49 I repeat FORTY FUCKING NINE states you can kill a trans person and use the “trans panic defense” as your reason for fucking killing someone like me and IT ACTUALLY WORKS. My life is nothing as long as the person who killed me was scared enough to fucking murder me.
Who should really be the scared one here?
Marriage equality is great and all but FUCKAND THIS MOSTLY AFFECTS BLACK TRANS WOMEN.
SAY IT WITH ME NOW.
BLACK TRANS WOMEN.
What the actual fucking hell is ‘trans panic?’
“Oh, that person is living their life in a fashion that isn’t identical to mine, I’m terrified!”
“Oh, that person is making a decision to embody a truth that has nothing to do with me, I’m terrified!”
“Oh, that person is daring to be an individual with their own identity, GOD FUCKING FORBID.”
